Apple debuted three new home products today, but the October announcements aren't over yet. Rumors suggest there will be another event on October 27, plus we're still waiting on the iPhone Duo. Here's everything we're expecting to see launch or be announced in October.
On October 16, iPhone Duo pre-orders start. On October 23, iPhone Duo launches. On October 27, an OLED touchscreen MacBook Pro, M6 14-inch MacBook Pro, M6 iMac, and OLED iPad mini are expected.
By October 30 or before, iOS 27.2, iPadOS 27.2, and macOS 27.2 updates will launch. On October 30, HomePod mini 2 and iPhone Duo launches in more countries are expected. Late October will see a Mac Studio with 512GB of RAM.
Apple is rumored to be holding content creator sessions in Los Angeles on October 27 and 28 to show off the new Macs and OLED iPad mini. As with the Welcome Home announcement, new devices may be revealed via press release, with in-person events for media hands-on time. The new Macs will debut in October but won't ship to customers until November.
With an October 27 announcement, pre-orders could happen that same day and a launch could follow as soon as November 6. Apple's OLED MacBook Pro is the product to watch because it will be Apple's first touchscreen Mac and the first redesign since 2021. The new MacBook Pro will be lighter and use M5 Pro and M5 Max chips.
